Model: RE450  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.0.1

Its very unstable. I just doesn't work right. I have a router fritzbox 7590 with two re450 extenders working on both 2.4 and 5ghz. I thought i bought good extenders, but they are just not cutting it. They are not far apart, in a house, 10 meters max, and they both extend the router, not each other.

If router is rebooted, both extenders need to be unplugged also, otherwise they don't reconnect to the router anymore. They also constantly (every other day or so, for no apparent reason) need to be rebooted, because they just stop working randomly. I was thinking of downgrading the fw, because it seems that it is worse than the previous one. Does anyone else experience this?

 

P.S. I wish openwrt was supported for v3, i'm sure there would much be less problems...

 

Thanks

@misterTi  Hello, 

 

To help isolate the issue, it is recommended to use leave 1 RE plugged in and see if it could work stably?
